Yes, maybe I should have said “the Catholic tradition almost always uses male pronouns for Lucifer.”
“Almost always”=I can’t think of a time when he wasn’t but the tradition is long and weird so never say never.
If he got that deep into the weeds tho he wouldn’t be talking about the “sin of empathy.”
However prots have come up with all sorts of things about Satan and Beezlebub and the snake in the garden of Eden, which Genesis doesn’t actually say was Lucifer, but I do not Go There.
Lucifer is almost always gendered male in the Catholic tradition.
See yall in a bit!
Please keep spreading the word and helping my friend.
I know a lot of people need help right now. I know all of them are somebody's friend.
Just do what you can, as often as you can. Help whomever you're able in the ways you're able. Every kindness counts.
Thank you, gentlecreatures!

Whatever goofiness is going on with the interwebs also affected the online Douay-Rheims translation, which I needed for research.
I have notes and a very bare bones rough draft. Between them they do the work an outline does.
Kinda wish I wasn’t reworking a part of the Hell Chapter rn but it needs to be done.
TIL: Catholics clearly don't have the concept of mar'it ayin
(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marit_a...)
But more seriously, wishing a meaningful Lent to everyone observing it!
So many holidays and various religious and/or traditional events right now! Everyone who would like to should have a good observance of something! Lunar New Year, Ramadan, Ash Wednesday, we also have a Rosh Chodesh just in case. I'm probably missing something too.
Agreed. Assholes aren’t worth spending time on.
Wrote about 580 words.
Ages ago I found a photo online of posters advertising how the Chinese Communist Party could help grow your business and I regret not saving it so I could repost it here.
This was literally the first chapter lmao
Ugh. Unsolicited text from Green Book Publishers asking me if I'm the author of Echo Sight.
Yeah, but since you're a scammer, I'm just gonna PSA my fellow authors that a legit publisher will NEVER text an unsolicited offer.
Don't fall prey to hopes & dash your dreams. Be safe, y'all.

However they’re stuck with him too.
If it all gets too much, just remember all 31 seasons of "The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross" are streaming on Prime.
Ciarán wishes he had a Male Loneliness Crisis but instead he has an I’m Stuck With These Guys Crisis.
The Violet is out!
Everything about this story is just ??????????????????
Oh ok
Wait what’s happening to YouTube
Why does that bird symbolism hit so good.
It worked as long as we were semi-long-distance! (Medium-distance?) It started breaking down when he wanted us to move in together.
The exception being the guy I dated for like six years cuz that’s a bit longer than the classic situationship.
